Retailer launches ‘everything must go’ closing down sale before beloved store shuts after 157 years on high street A RETAILER has launched an "everything must go" closing down sale before the beloved store shuts, after 61 years on the high street.

Many retailers including Next and Marks & Spencer have been shutting stores on the high street and taking bigger stores in better-performing retail parks instead.

In some cases, retailers are shutting a store and reopening a new shop at the other end of a high street to reflect how a town has changed.

In some cases, stores have been shut when a retailer goes bust, as in the case of Carpetright, Debenhams, Dorothy Perkins, Paperchase, Ted Baker, The Body Shop, Topshop and Wilko to name a few.

The problem is that when a big shop closes, footfall falls across the local high street, which puts more shops at risk of closing.
